Holodeck—Virtual Reality for the Construction Industry

Virtual reality (VR) is currently one of the most discussed architecture, engineering, and construction topics, and there are already many interesting use cases for architects and design presentation. But how can this technology be used for real construction scenarios? This session is based on a VR scenario for a shopping center designed and constructed by a major German construction company. It will show the power of the VR technology using different design phases, levels of development, and timelines. VR is much more than a playful presentation instrument-it can significantly improve the construction process, and help optimize the work on-site.
